Blessed Is Bennett

Thursday, October 8, 2009

We have had so much love roll in since Bennett was born. The outpouring of love is almost too much for words. How do you ever express how much you appreciate people taking the time to tell you they care?

One treat that showed up in our email box a few days ago was from the church we attended when we lived in North Carolina only months ago. It's hard to see the sign but if you click the picture, it says, "Blessed Is Bennett."

This is a very special picture for us as it is only a slice of the sweet people at St. Luke's Episcopal Church in Durham. Breck loves the picture most because it's exactly what these friends would look like if we had just walked into the church building ourselves. They are such kind, kind and thoughtful folks.

Here is what was included with the picture, which was emailed to us:"Just wanted you guys to know that you are REALLY surrounded by prayer. Peace, Anne."

Our friend Micheal is holding a smaller sign which can be seen in the smaller picture. It says, "SHV and SGF from RDU". These are the airport codes. Breck is from SHV (Shreveport, LA). Brian is from SGF (Springfield, MO). Our church is from RDU (Raleigh-Durham, NC). This is how Michael, in particular, originally got to know us. For us, it's a reminder of where we've been and the love that we have received from all over the country.
